The spacious floors of the Montréal Tower are enhanced by a design that harmonizes with the organic shapes of the Olympic Stadium, creating a dynamic and collaborative work environment.

The design’s main objective was to evoke the tower’s history. Several references to the stadium’s primary vocation are found throughout the tower. The impressive concrete structure is visible from the outside and inside alike and is emphasized by the neutral tones of the surfaces.

The space itself functions like a work tool, with ultramodern offices equipped with the latest technology to attract and meet the needs of employees aged 25 to 35. Lounges, entertainment areas, coffee nooks, and multifunctional rooms have been designed with a young, active clientele in mind. The spacious, light-filled rooms feature light grey or marbled flooring. In the waiting area, a poppy-shaped ceiling detail recalls the orange hue of the original retractable roof as seen from the inside.

Overall, the streamlined, resolutely contemporary design is sure to inspire a strong sense of belonging among Desjardins employees. The project goes beyond creating a workplace—it creates a vibrant, living environment.

The Montréal Tower stands out for its complex angles and for the varying dimensions and shapes from one floor to the next.

“The Tower is an iconic Montréal landmark and our employees are thrilled with the idea of working there. Offices drenched in natural light, shared spaces, rest areas, a variety of food options, dining rooms, and more—in short, a design that has been thought through to the last detail.

As well, the influx of over a thousand workers to eastern part of the city will doubtlessly help revitalize the neighbourhood and the local economy, and we’re really happy about that“.

– Mathieu Desrosiers, sponsor of the Destination Montréal Tower project at Desjardins.
